    Hi guys. Long time no see. I hv been waiting forever for Wookie drama comeback to be back here. Life has been crazy busy. But i'm here for Wookie ^^

    I first read about this news while i was at work. So not much time to analyse what-I-call-a-sistuation-here LOL

    FYI Gong Yoo is one of very few korean actors i adore. I was super excited for Goblin. As to the point that i talked to my Korean boss about him haha

    Butttt now whatttt

    I'm so torn now. I have a strong belief that there's no such thing as second lead syndrome in dramas which have Wookie. But now he's becoming the 2nd lead. What to feel now?

    According to dramabeans, Wookie's character is drop dead gorgeous which suit him perfectly haha. I means i always feel pity for actresses who are paired with him. I mean look at him. So beautiful. 

    I see Kim Go Eun in Cheese in the trap (my latest drama because i loose faith in kdrama pd after the disaster name the 2nd haft of Cheese LOL). First, she's too young for Gong Yoo and Wookie. Second, she's cute, tall and look nice in everything but she might be overshadowed by the beauty of two male leads :(

    About the PD, she's behind DOT. Never watched that drama. Never interested anyway. It seems try-hard at best. (Sorry any DOT fans here). I'm very worry about the PD.

    Lastly and most importantly, i see some comments on dramabeans say that "is Wookie too big to be 2nd meal lead?". It was my very first reaction to this news too. Any thought guys? Light me up here.

     

     

    Hi i'm GY fan but i want to tell you that according to this story the focus is on 2 male leads not typical hero - heroine story so they cast 2 big names all focus on goblin and grim reaper

    Gong Yoo stars as a goblin, “the protector,” who needs to take a human bride in order to end his immortality. Lee Dong-wook has been offered the part of an amnesiac reaper, “the taker,” a 21st-century modern, sexy reaper who looks like a model. It’s said that whenever a soul encounters him, they’re shocked by his beauty first, and then belatedly surprised by their own death.

    The goblin and reaper meet somewhere “between fate and a curse,” and end up living together in a peculiar arrangement.

    so i think lDW role here isn't typical 2nd lead but he has big role and important too

  2. Lee Dong Wook Considers Joining Gong Yoo In Highly Anticipated Drama

    Lee Dong Wook Considers Joining Gong Yoo In Highly Anticipated Drama

    On May 27 it was revealed by a representative that actor Lee Dong Wook is currently considering taking part in a new drama, entitled “Goblin” (working title), by writer Kim Eun Sook. Star writer Kim Eun Sook is the creative writer behind hit dramas such as “Descendants of the Sun.” Lee Dong Wook’s role, if he takes the part, will be the grim reaper.

    Lee Dong Wook’s agency, King Kong Entertainment, stated, “We have received an offer from the production crew. We are reviewing the offer favorably.”

    It has been previously confirmed that actor Gong Yoo will participate in the drama. This his return to a TV drama in four years. Furthermore, Kim Go Eun is also considering the lead female role.

    The drama’s plot revolves around the story of a goblin and grim reaper who live together. The goblin needs a human bride to end his immortal life, while the grim reaper suffers from amnesia.

    “Goblin” is set to air in November on tvN.

  3. Kim Go Eun in Talks to Join Gong Yoo in Kim Eun Sook’s Upcoming Fantasy Drama Demon

    gori.jpg

    This is faaaaaantastic casting news for what is K-ent’s most anticipated upcoming drama, that of uber successful screenwriter Kim Eun Sook‘s first cable drama Demon on tvN. Having locked up Gong Yoo as her male lead, something she’s been trying for years now, now Kim Eun Sook has her eyes set on talented movie-drama actress Kim Go Eun as the female lead.

    Kim Go Eun was a relative unknown to the drama viewers but had been making a splash in many Korean movies before her television debut with Cheese in the Trap in early 2016. tvN is likely striking while the iron is hot with her since her performance in Cheese was widely lauded as one of the best aspects of that drama. Demon is currently slated to premiere in November on tvN’s most watched Fri-Sat time slot.

    In addition to the news that Kim Go Eun was in talks for the female lead, there is also news that PD Lee Eung Bok is returning to reunite with Kim Eun Sook to direct Demon. He directed herDescendants of the Sun and before that directed Discovery of Love and Secret on KBS. I’m thrilled with him at the helm, his ability to succeed at the directorial aspects of all three dramas, IMO, of completely different genres, makes me anticipate how he will bring to life Kim Eun Sook’s first stab at total fantasy with Demon. Gong Yoo is playing a demon who wants to become human while Kim Go Eun would be the female lead who is a bringer of souls to the underworld who has lost her memory, and the two end up cohabiting.

    i know there're many mixed views about casting Kim Go Eun as female lead so i would say my opinion about it i wanted the female lead to be actress in her 30s like yoon eun hye, jung yoo mi or Gong hyo jin but we can't deny that KGE is talented too like them especially in her movies i'll support them together especially  i trust gong yoo and his acting skills  so don't worry And FIGHTING

  4. Kim Go-eun offered lead opposite Gong Yoo in fantasy romance Goblin

    kimgoeun_84.jpg

    Ah! I’d be more than happy to see Kim Go-eun (Cheese in the Trap) paired alongsideGong Yoo (Train to Busan) for his upcoming fantasy-romance drama Goblin for tvN, to be written by Descended From the Sun star writer Kim Eun-sook, so it’s good news to hear that she’s been offered the role and is currently considering it.

  5. GONG YOO: SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST

    The South Korean model-turned-actor on zombies, choosing projects, and Yeon Sang-ho’s Cannes official selection Train to Busan.

    Gong Yoo

    This is an interesting thought: how would conscription impact Hollywood and its promising young male stars, the leading men of tomorrow? “No Star Trek Beyond for you, Anton Yelchin!” No exceptions. “I’ve just about had it up to here with your X-Men shenanigans, Nicholas Hoult!” Your hopes and dreams dashed like that, or just put on hold for a year or two—if you’re so lucky.

    The same fate of South Korean citizens—if you’re a guy, anyway—Gong Yoo served a two-year mandatory military service in his late 20s, at the height of his fame in 2007. By then, the wildly popular TV series The 1st Shop of Coffee Prince had turned the model-turned-actor into a household name back home and upped his demand overseas as a “Hallyu” star, or as part of “The Korean Wave,” referring to the increased global visibility of South Korean culture from the ’90s forward. Two years away sounds like a death sentence in entertainment, but despite Gong’s sparse filmography, he successfully returned to the height of it all. And it’s not strange that, as he toughened up in the military, so did his artistic palate. Once known for his romantic comedies, we saw Gong taking on Silenced (2011), a controversial film based on actual events in which young deaf students were sexually abused by faculty members at a South Korean school for the hearing-impaired in the early ’00s, and step into the shoes of a North Korean spy in The Suspect (2013).

    This year, Cannes unspooled Yeon-Sang Ho’s Midnight entry Train to Busan, which finds Gong trapped on the KTX (South Korea’s high-speed rail system) and caught up in a zombie apocalypse. This November, the actor will return to television following a four-year absence with Dokkaebi, a tale of a goblin and a grim reaper working together to help the dead pass through to the next world.

    We stole Gong away for a quick chat following the Cannes premiere of Train to Busan.

    The 69th Cannes Film Festival runs from May 11 to May 22.

    You had an incredibly enthusiastic response at the premiere. It’s my fifth year at Cannes and I hadn’t experienced quite something like that. Was it your first time seeing the finished film?

    It was. To be honest, I was a bit worried in the beginning because this is director Yeon-Sang Ho’s first live action film. But before we started shooting, we shared conversations about embedding a strong message against the backdrop of this zombie movie and that was very satisfying to me. I wonder if you felt the message that people are scarier than zombies when you saw the movie.

    I think we’re the scariest thing on the planet. I’m more and more convinced of this every day.

    We wanted to communicate that. We wanted to show just how scary people can be—not zombies.

    In every practical sense, Train to Busan is a horror film. But it’s also incredibly moving and sad. Did you find the physical or emotional demands more challenging on this shoot?

    To me, acting is difficult in general. It was hard work, both physically and mentally. But it would be embarrassing for me to admit that I was tired on this shoot because the actors portraying the zombies were so hard-working. I couldn’t possibly complain about the things I went through when what was expected of them physically was so much greater. They were put through a lot.

    Some time has passed since you wrapped on the film. I’m assuming seeing the film last night conjured a lot of memories from the shoot. Would you be open to sharing one of them?

    Although this is obviously a fictional movie, there were times when I was genuinely scared. When you’re operating on fear while in character, in this narrow space of the train, and one of the zombie grabs you by accident, it’s scary. That’s for the blooper real, but the expression on my face is real.

    You spend the majority of this film running for your life, and I totally bought into all of it.

    I’m running like hell all throughout this movie and I’m not faking that. I was scared. [Laughs] Even when we weren’t shooting, I didn’t go near the actors with their zombie make-ups on.

    Yeon-Sang Ho comes from the world of animation and this is his first live action film, as you mentioned before. What observations did you make about him as a director and person?

    If you’re going to work within the zombie genre, which had never been explored too much in South Korean cinema before, you need to have the confidence to see it through. I saw that confidence in Yeon-Sang Ho. I was confident that he would make a great film from the very beginning. He also has the ability to make actors laugh, so that created a comfortable atmosphere.

    You’ve been in the industry for a while now and explored a lot. What excites you nowadays?

    I look at the forest, not a lone tree.

    That’s poetic. You’re simply looking at the bigger picture.

    Exactly. If there’s a forest and the view looks great, I’m happy to explore it.
